Julie Langston is a pediatric nurse practitioner and her current job is in forensic assault patient care. She once worked at a clinic for foster children and became familiar with the system both through that work and through adopting their own son from the foster care system.
Julie has always felt that foster kids should have a strong voice during a time in their lives that is tumultuous and uncertain. She recently heard about the ACEs program and how severely trauma affects kids on a long term basis. She had also heard about Yolo County CASA through the years and as her son got older, she felt the time was right to become a volunteer.
